We are not just blindly injecting people with some unknown stuff, we understand well what is in them, how the body reacts, the risks associated (spoiler they are minuscule beyond absurdity.)

Vaccinations are by far the most well-researched and well-understood medical intervention in the history of medical science, we are literally standing on the shoulders of near 100 years of medical science here.

The safety of these things is not in any doubt, we have lost our way becoming a society of humans who stopped trusting in the experts and this is literally causing a pandemic to be much worse than it needed to be and give way for new variants to take hold and spread.
Can't bring myself to thank this post for one specific reason -- starting it with "Respectfully". These anti-vax, anti-science, anti-mask dumbasses are one of the main, if not the main, reason why we are still being held back from normalcy and seeing wave after wave of additional infections. Even though I'm double vaxxed, I'm concerned for my preschool daughter who is too young to take the shot. These people deserve no respect at all.

Frankly, aside from those who are actually medically unable to receive the vaccination and those who still do not qualify, like my kid, the others can just FOAD.
